2 Vertical Post Kits: C.R. Laurence Co., Inc. offers various types of mountings for securing Posts. Surface mount (Standard Base). This is the most popular type of mounting. The Post is connected to a 5 (127 mm) square base, which is mounted to the floor. Surface mount (Offset Base) The Post is offset on the base to allow the post to be flush against a wall or aligned with a vertical face. Fascia Mount This mount allows the Post to be mounted to the vertical face of a wall or slab. Core Mount This method of mounting requires coring a hole in the floor, installing the Post and filling the hole with Kwixset Cat. No. KWK50 Cement. FASCIA MOUNT SURFACE MOUNT OFFSET BASE SURFACE MOUNT STANDARD BASE CORE MOUNT Post assembly and installation Surface mounted Posts. Assemble the Base Plate to the Post with the (6) ¼ (6 mm) x 1-½ (38 mm) Cat. No. BPS112 screws provided. Position the included Moisture Barrier Gasket between the substrate and the base plate prior to mounting. Helpful Hints: Lubricate the screws and assembly will be much easier. 2 3/8" Top Rail Direction BASE PLATE SCREWS ISOLATOR PAD BASE PLATE When surface mounting ARS Posts, make sure that the 3-hole edges on the Base Plates run the same direction as the Top Rail, whenever possible, for maximum rigidity.

5 100 Series Installation Instructions 100 Series Top Cap Installation: Attach the 100 series Top Connector Block Cat. No. RCB1 to the sides of the Posts. Typically the distance from the top of the Post to the first hole is 2-1/4 (57 mm) and 3-1/4 (83 mm) to the lower hole. Helpful Hints: Use the die lines in the Post extrusion as a guide for the holes. This will ensure the Connector Block is centered on the Post. Cut the Top Cap to length. Slide the Top Cap over the Connector Blocks and secure with self-drilling Tek Screws Cat. No. TEK1. Helpful Hints: Use the die line on the bottom leg of the Top Cap extrusion as a guide for the screws. Screws should be approx. ½ (12 mm) from the edge of the Post. Secure the post caps to the top of the posts using silicone adhesive Cat. No. 95C. TOP CAP 2-1/4" (57 mm) CONNECTING BLOCK CAT.NO. RCB1 STANDARD CONNECTING BLOCK POSITION 100 Series Bottom Rail Installation Attach the 100 series Connector Block Cat. No. RCB1 to the sides of the Posts. Typically the distance from the floor to the bottom of the rail is 3 (76 mm). This will give a dimension of 3-3/8 (86 mm) from the floor to the center of the lower holes in the block. Helpful Hints: Use the Die lines in the Post extrusion as a guide for the holes. This will ensure the Connector Block is centered on the Post. Cut the Bottom Rail to length. Slide the Rail over the Connector Blocks and secure with self-drilling Tek Screws Cat. No. TEK1. Helpful Hints: Use the die line on the bottom leg of the Bottom Rail extrusion as a guide for the Screws. Screws should be approx. ½ (12 mm) from the edge of the Post.

6 100 Series Glass Installation Install two Spacer Blocks into Bottom Rail. One at each end, 3 (76 mm) from edge of Post. Cut vinyl the same length as the Rails. Push fit into the Rails. TOP CAP TOP RAIL TOP VINYL TOP VINYL INSTALLATION BOTTOM VINYL BOTTOM RAIL SPACER BLOCK BASE PLATE ISOLATOR PAD BOTTOM VINYL INSTALLATION Glass size is determined by the daylight opening. Height: Daylight Opening plus 3/4 (19 mm). Width: Daylight Opening minus 3 (76 mm). (1-1/2 [38 mm] each side). To install glass, insert fully into the Top Vinyl, then align the bottom edge with the Bottom Vinyl and press the glass down into the Vinyl. OPTIONAL Add a small bead of CRL 95CBL Black Structural Silicone between the glass corner edges within the bottom vinyl area.

7 100 Series Picket Installation: Install Picket Vinyl into the Top and Bottom Rails. Snap fit one Picket Spacer onto Top and Bottom Rails adjacent to the Post. Cut Pickets to length using: Daylight opening Plus 1-1/2 (38 mm). Install picket, then snap fit next set of spacers, and continue on. Helpful Hints: Install the last few Pickets together before snap fitting the Spacers. Then fit the Spacers evenly between the Pickets. Trim the last set of Spacers to fit the remaining gap.

8 200, 300, & 400 Series Installation Instructions 200, 300, & 400 Series Top Cap Installation: Illustrations are of the 200 Series. 300, & 400 Series follow the same procedures. Cut Top Cap to length. Locate Top Cap onto Posts and secure with self-drilling Tek Screws Cat. No. TEK1. Install End Caps with Flat Head Screws Cat. No. ECS1. Helpful Hints: Use the die line on the bottom leg of the Top Cap extrusion as a guide for the screws. Screws should be centered over the Post. 200, 300, 350 & 400 Series Rail Connecting Block Installation: Install the Rail Connector Blocks onto the Posts using the self-drilling screws provided. The Rail Connector Blocks (Cat. No. RCB2) are used to support the Bottom Rails. Typically the distance from the floor to the bottom of the rail is 3 (76 mm). This will require the holes for the Rail Connector Blocks to be 4-3/8 (111 mm) up from the floor. Helpful Hints: Use the Die Lines in the Post extrusion as a guide for the holes. This will ensure the Rail Connector Block is centered on the post. Height of the holes is dependent on the height of the Bottom Rail from the floor.
